Jade Yurick, Creator of Gold Leaf Calligraphy
“I draw inspiration from love stories I hear from the newly engaged and seasoned married couples. Having eloped myself, I enjoy celebrating unique stories and providing reminders of a cherished love. I don’t have many keepsakes from my wedding day so I want to help others remember their special day with custom lettering and watercolor designs. I use their story to influence my artistic elements and fashion a glimpse into happily ever after.
In a digital era, a piece of paper is a throwback to when each piece was handled with care and devotion. Just as each love is filled with little imperfections, so is a handmade piece of art.”
